I recently migrateded to a C-8 hub (a week ago) froma C-5 and have noticed that all of my automation that use sunrise and Sunset to restrict them are not doing so. They run all day regardless of how I setup the restriction. I tried adding a positive offset based on some old issues I found in another topic, which successfully restricted the app, until the next morning where it promptly returned to no longer being restricted during the day as I have it set to do.
Note how it doesn't show restricted next to the app "Turn on entrance light when front door lock unlocked". This is a new version of the automation I created after the first one from the old hub wasn't restricting either. Obviously, that didn't solve the problem.
Here are a couple other shots that may be pertinent, or not.
That's what I was thinking as well, but it's a real shame as it was working perfectly fine on my c-5 last week. That, and where I live in Canada, Sunset and sunrise vary by about 5 hours each from solstice to solstice... so using a time is definitely not preferable.
Check you location (lat/long), time zone and current time on the Settings / Hub Details page. Perhaps hit Update there... There is nothing about C-8 that would affect these types of restrictions.
That was the first thing I checked. The long/lat, time, time zone, and displayed sunrise and sunset times are all correct. It makes no sense to me why it should make a difference being a new hub either, but thats literally the only thing that's changed since everything worked fine on my previous hub. I just refreshed the location data now, buts it's after sunset now, so I'll have to wait until morning to see if that made any difference at all.
Interestingly enough, I just reversed the times to only be active during the day and now it's restricted. I'll put it back and see if it holds come morning. Fingers crossed as I already had it restrict properly once by adding an offset, but it broke again at the next sunrise or sunset.
